Comments [?]

FUNCTIONGlobally modulates RNA abundance by binding to RNase E (Rne) and regulating its endonucleolytic activity. Can modulate Rne action in a substrate-dependent manner by altering the composition of the degradosome. Modulates RNA-binding and helicase activities of the degradosome.
SUBUNITHomotrimer. Binds to both RNA-binding sites in the C-terminal region of Rne and to RhlB.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the RraA family.

Comments Although it was initially thought to be a methyltransferase involved in the last step of the menaquinone pathway, it is not clustered with other enzymes of the menaquinone pathway in most bacteria, and does not have such enzymatic activity. Difficult to separate RRAA and RRAAH entries, but it seems that RRAA entries have [DN]-A-E at E.coli positions 75-77. RRAAH have G-[GD]. See PubMed:24359411
